Up for sale is our expedition rig, which includes a 1996 LMTV M1078 and a 2020 Northern Lite 8-11EXSE Wet Bath as the habitat on a 14’ steel flat bed.
The truck was bought through the 1033 program: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1033_program. This is an important distinction because most LMTVs sold to the public (via GovPlanet) have something wrong with them. This truck was and remains in excellent working order.
Truck Information
BASIC
Reason for selling is, given recent events, our situation has changed significantly, and we are unable to continue with our build-out. The plan was to make a garage under the cab over and add storage boxes on the sides of the camper. (See attached renditions.)
ASKING PRICE
$95,000
We prefer to sell the combo but would consider selling the camper separately.
